News from Tennessee: A bill is pending that would prohibit teachers from discussing homosexuality, on the premise that if we all don’t talk about it, it will go away. Because if beating and killing people for being gay doesn’t make them stop it, then the silent treatment will totally work. Or something.
In response to the proposed “don’t say gay” law, George Takei has offered his name as a substitute.
I’m trying to watch my spending, but I really want an “It’s Okay to be Takei!” shirt…

Hi!
We have found your CV in Jobing database and believe you are a perfect candidate for this job which we offer.If you are interested in this position, please feel free to contact us via email.
Hm. Free e-mail address that in no way matches the name given for the sender. No details at all about the “job” they have. And don’t forget the poor grammar.
I can’t count the number of e-mails I’ve gotten from people who claim to have “reviewed your resume” and then offer me jobs that have nothing to do with anything on my resume.
I didn’t even bother with this one.
